Thanks to Kraddels.
Aroma is musty, sweet honey and a tad cavaillon melon. Taste is caramel, port. A tad oxidised and cardboard, but this is not a problem as it is absorbed by the lambiek. Still funk there. Nice suave palate.

Poured from a 750 ml bottle.
Aroma is very oxidized with lots of sherry character. Light funk and acidity.
The cord on this was warped and slid right out with almost no friction. Pours a copper reddish color with a faint, forced head.
Flavor has moderate acidity with hints of citrus and quite a bit of sweetness. Some red apple and tons of sherry notes. Faint funk, but it’s really not super present.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied with no carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth.
Overall, a bad beer; well, a bad bottle. Both of the previous bottles I have opened have been way better. The cork in this one looks like it was pushed out and then resettled. So much oxidation.

Hazed amber with a decent haze. Light balsamic and musty aroma. Like a balsamic acidic lollipop with a duller acidic finish.
Notes: Bottled in 08 drank in ’16. I bought this bottle at the 3 Fonteinen while living in Belgium in ’09-’11 and brought it back with me. It was aging ~6 more years before opening for a bottle share at Eric’s, Dec ’16.

Hazy dark amber pour with no head. No carbonation at all. Really nice nose a hint of funk and malty sweetness. Taste is nice but you must wonder what it would have been like when carbonated. Malty toffee and some funk.
